Meet Our Director

We may not be able to prepare the future for our children, but we can at least prepare our children for the future.

Ms Bryanna Dunigan

Hello, my name is Bryanna Dunigan. I would love to tell you a little about myself. I was born in Oceanside, California. I grew up there with my mom and little brother. I then moved to Florida when I was 11 and have been here ever since. I graduated from Winter Springs High School in 2005. Since graduating, I have earned my Child Development Degree and a Florida's Director's Credential. I have prior experience as a teacher and assistant Director in Early Education and Care. I am also currently pursuing my Bachelors Degree at UCF.

I have been working in the childcare field for over 10 years. I love working around children because watching them grow and change, reach milestones and just learn to be a child is amazing to me. There is no greater feeling than to come to work and see a child's smile when they see you walk through the door and know you are a part of there happiness. Outside of work I enjoy being crafty, taking walks, canoeing and going to the beach. I am also a huge family person.

What Our Parents Are Saying

I just want to say thank you to you and your staff for taking such great care of my grandson Mason and for helping him transition back to Ladybird Academy so smoothly and comfortably.

I cannot tell you what a relief it is for me being so far away and being able to peek in via the web cam and see our little boy having such wonderful days at school. I know he is receiving the very best and most attentive care while also learning and playing with other children all in a very safe, clean and cheerful environment. Mason is so happy to be back at Ladybird and we are so grateful. I hope you know what a difference you and your staff are making in providing such loving care for all our children.
